Coronavirus: Italy tries to contain the virus

We hear what that is like for the people caught up in the new restrictions

Italy has extended its emergency coronavirus measures, which include travel restrictions and a ban on public gatherings, to the entire country. We hear from people in Italy affected by the restrictions.

Also, we head to Wuhan in China and hear from someone who has been in self-isolation since late January. He gives his advice to Italians.

And we hear from a group of parents who describe the moment their children came out as gay.
